Wray had represented the telephone company and had won an increase in the hearing before the State Tublic Utilities commission. MUNCIE APPEALS Recently, and after Wray's employment by Dayton, the tity of Muncio appealed the case to the supreme court. City officials felt that since the engineer would have to represent the telephone company in the hearing it would not ''look right" for him to take opposing sides in the Dayton case. "Wo have asked Wray to discontinue his investigation not because we felt he could not nandle the case satisfactorily, but because the public might misunderstand our employment of a man who is working for the telephone company, even though the Indiana and the Ohio Bell companies are separate," Eichelberger said Saturday. Brownell is now the city's representative in the electrolysis case with local street railway companies, and in this, as in other matters, has given satisfactory service.

He is said to have one of the best staffs in the country for telephone investigations. When notified that the city commission had selected him to take charge of the case, Brownell stated that the investigation will get under way immediately. November 14 is the data set for resumption of the hearing before the State Public Utilities commission.
